Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the direct current power supply related technical field, especially to a direct current carrier communication signal extraction method. BACKGROUND

[0002] The direct current power supply system is a power supply system that obtains adjustable direct current by rectifying three-phase alternating current through internal power supply rectifier modules, and supplies power to lamps and lanterns through power cables.

[0003] The communication between the direct current power supply system and the LED lamp equipment is usually achieved by using wireless communication such as ZigBee, NB-IoT, LoRa or wired communication such as PLC (power line carrier), RS485 and DALI to realize the control of the LED lamp equipment. The above communication methods need to increase a separate communication module in the LED lamp equipment to realize light control. Although the above communication methods are simple to implement, the implementation cost is high, and some communication methods are easily disturbed, resulting in communication abnormalities.

[0004] On the output direct current power supply line of the direct current power supply system, a special communication method using power lines as information transmission media for voice or data transmission is called direct current carrier communication. The method of using the rectifier unit in the direct current power supply system to realize the issuance of control instructions by adjusting the output voltage (voltage jumps at rated amplitude and frequency) is called low-frequency direct current power carrier.

[0005] In the low-frequency direct current power carrier system, the output voltage of the rectifier unit in the direct current power supply system is relatively high, the carrier signal amplitude during communication is relatively small (the carrier signal voltage amplitude should not be too large, otherwise the requirement for the rectifier module is relatively high, and the signal transmission rate will also be reduced), and the traditional A / D sampling circuit samples the communication signal after resistance division. Since the proportion of the communication carrier signal to the power supply voltage is very small, about 5%, the carrier signal amplitude that can be sampled after resistance division will be greatly reduced, so that the A / D sampled signal is easily disturbed by the power signal, resulting in data transmission failure. At the same time, the direct current carrier communication signal extraction circuit using resistance division cannot realize effective isolation of power conversion and control signal. SUMMARY
